    Horrifying, and I love the end statement of “We think we’re right anyway despite your presentation of fact.”

    Bon Iver and Father John Misty and Jeff Rosenstock, despite playing different kinds of music, are all linked in my brain as dudes whose music I don’t ever want to listen to but which I respect as something a lot of other people really love.

    I literally can’t think of anything more exciting than white millennial dudes sharing their opinions on Bon Iver

    I am still offended that it’s pronounced “Bon EeVare” and not “Bon Eye-ver”

    I’m worried it’s Shapiro just because he’s younger.
     
  10. Earlier this summer I posted on here, “I don’t think Biden is going to drop out.”

    So today I say: “I don’t think she’s going to pick Walz”

    Bon Iver focused waaay too heavily on random blips and bloops in the two albums after BI, BI - big turn off

    No clue who this is, but smelling someone’s chair air is the fucking definition of weird.

    Also, being serious, what, if any, are the policy positions of Trump/Vance designed to help people? Outside of wanting a tougher stance on the border, and abortion stuff, do they have any policy positions that focus on making the life of the average citizen better?

    my brain still has trouble computing that Harris and Walz are basically the same age

    Something something lower taxes maybe something something

    Another Matt Christman observation I agree with is that the idea that these parties would do anything to help or improve the everyday lives of people is pretty much out the window for most American voters. Politics isn’t about making the world better or making life easier, it’s about beating/punishing the people you don’t like.

    You needed a transfer cable and two copies of the game if you wanted both.

    I mean, Justin and Johnny Greenwood both share disgusting political opinions so they have that in common.

    Off the top of my head i'd say things like stopping outsourcing and creating more manufacturing jobs here and lowering taxes on the working class are things they talk about that could be beneficial. But I don't trust that they would do it in a way that would actually help. Instead they'd probably start a trade war, increase the deficit, and cut taxes on the rich
